Welcome to my website.

I believe in the concept of 'a completed life' and some of the website content is geared towards explaining what this is. This is important to me because, at some time in the future, I propose to bring my life to a conclusion as I believe it should be a person's human right to choose how they pass from this world. As I shared my thoughts with family and friends they all told me that it was too early to end my life. I heard them and I thank them from the bottom of my heart for their sincerity, honesty and care. I continued to speak with a range of different people and organisations such as medical professionals, hospice officials and those who work with people at the end of their lives. 

. I have also been honest with you—in sharing my thoughts and my decision moving forward. Most importantly, I would like to end of my life with the same dignity that I have lived it. Watching those who have illnesses which threaten their quality of life and dignity has been very difficult and I believe there may be better processes and procedures which could maintain dignity in death. And this is why I will continue to follow my path. I trust that one day soon a range of end -of-life decisions will be open to all—without prejudice. Christmas 2024 will be a very special one for me and I decided to light my tiny tree early so that I could enjoy the festivity for a much longer time.

















I have been exceedingly fortunate in having careers which enabled me to travel the world, engage with interesting and challenging people and work in some amazing environments and countries. Other parts of this website are dedicated to those travels and my experiences. I submit updates from time to time so please drop by anytime you have a few spare moments and catch up with where I am and what I am doing. You can also subscribe to get notifications of these updates and you're welcome to contact me by email if you have any queries or comments.

What is A Completed Life?
My soul city - Barcelona

In the centre background is Mont-Juic which overlooks Barcelona Harbour. The hill contains a castle and fortress and some of the 1992 Olympic Stadia. In the video, you will see La Sagrada Familia and Torre Glories (single cucumber) appearing from the left. 

Hi there and welcome to my blog.

From time to time, I will update its contents,

archiving older posts and adding new stories.

​

I am approaching my 'three score and ten' and have decided to share my life with you as it moves into its sunset. I have had multiple careers, three close partners, myriad friends far and wide, and have travelled to some parts of the world.

I hope you enjoy this blog as you travel with me towards my completed life.
